Working with the charity WORLDwrite, volunteers are needed to join a team committed to developing an alternative monthly newsreel and fledgling News Channel. Covering work produced by the charity’s volunteers, as well as key debates and issues, the newsreel will examine the hot issues, investigate alternative views and summarise opinions. The newsreels will not cover the usual stories or existing preoccupations but will seek out local and global subjects which challenge prevailing assumptions, advance new knowledge and critique contemporary fads. With an uncompromising stance on global equality, the fledgling channel and its monthly programme will seek to influence prevailing attitudes and ideas. WORLDwrite is looking for a volunteer assistant cameraperson to shoot occasional programmes, links and extra material. The cameraperson will be credited for their role and expenses paid for location shoots. This project welcomes newcomers to the UK to help advance a truly global perspective.

Great camera skills, an attention to detail and being highly organised are required for this role. A commitment to global equality is a must!
